  • Guide architectural decisions and technical design discussions across the team. 
  • Mentor and support engineers in their technical and professional development. 
  • Foster a culture of engineering excellence, ownership, and continuous learning. 
  • Promote modern workflows, including AI-assisted tooling and automation, to improve developer experience and speed. 
  • Collaborate cross-functionally with product managers, designers, QA, and other engineering teams. 

Required Background/Skills:

  • 3+ years of experience in engineering management roles, plus 5+ years of hands-on software engineering experience. 
  • Strong proficiency in Go and/or React; familiarity with cloud-native architecture and distributed systems. 
  • Experience managing high-performing teams in a remote-first environment. 
  • Comfortable working across the full software development lifecycle in production-scale environments. 
  • Demonstrated interest or experience using AI-assisted development tools
  • Excellent communication skills and a collaborative, low-ego approach to problem-solving. 
  • Passion for secure software practices, testing, and building high-availability systems. 
  • Applicants must meet eligibility requirements for access to export-controlled information as defined by U.S. export control laws, including EAR and ITAR.

Why Join Us:

  • Shape the future of secure, mission-critical collaboration technology. 
  • Join a high-trust, remote-first team that values autonomy and results.
